Single Path HA to Duel Path HA

We currently have a setup with a FAS2050 that's a dual head single enclosure with 1 shelf of SAS and 5 disks of SATA (Plus internal storage).  Right now everything is setup as single path HA and it appears that we should be able to go dual path HA without a problem.  The current setup as put in place before my time here and for what ever reason the SAS shelf was setup seperatly from the rest of the shelves.

Anyways, I have created a Visio drawing (It's not the best in the world, but you should get the point) that I will attatch here.  It's shows what the configuration currently looks like and how I think it should look.  I just want to know if there is a problem with compatability between the two different controllers (SATA shelves have AT-FCX controllers and the SAS has EHS4 controler).

We are running 7.3.5.1 on both heads.

Thank you for your time.

You can’t mix SAS and AT-FCX shelves on one loop.

Sounds good.  I found a page this morning that told me that.  Too bad I didn't find it last week...

Anyways, thank you.
